General ⇒ pdflatex and page extraction (security settings)

[latexcook]

As far as I noticed pdflatex does not support any pdf security settings - But the security settings of pdf-files created by pdflatex does not allow page extraction and document assembly.

How do I prevent pdflatex from doing that?

I have tried pdflatex from the current miktex and texlive distributions using a minimal example.

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\today
\end{document}

Code: Select all

pdflatex --version
MiKTeX-pdfTeX 2.9.5700 (1.40.16) (MiKTeX 2.9 64-bit)
